Research Abstract

Conventionally, the biggest legal feature of a trust was said to exist in the separation between the trustee's common-law power and the beneficiary's equity power. For this reason, civil law countries were unable to adopt a legal structure in which common-law power and equity power belong to separate entities, and it was considered that most European countries had their own trust-like systems but they could never have a trust itself as a legal system. However, in recent years, in pursuit of the introduction of a trust system in Europe, the dominant approach has been to find the characteristics of a trust in the concept of independence of segregated property, without relying on a legal structure specific to Anglo-American laws.
